   Why is this getting downvoted so much? Just the language I hope. because there is a point there. Everytime I see a meteor post, I get the feeling the article is telling me I'd be a fool to use anything else. Assuming that's so, can we start

   I believe it's being put up by wizards of the coast. They've been working on it for a while. So I think it's totally legal.

   Are you seriously suggesting wikipedia becomes a single page app? No really, I realize you say that server refreshes work for wikipedia, but you really seem to be suggesting that all websites should be single page apps.

   Am I the only one who doesn't feel impressed when simple sites are made responsive? I'd like to see a site as complex as the verge, or really any data heavy webapp made responsive.

   Very subjective, but I feel like if you're going to write HTML, you should just write HTML. (or possibly something like markup or restructured text) I just feel like writing code to generate document markup doesn't really fit the model of w

   Great! a half dozen new languages for backbone.js tutorials to be written in.

    It's hard to make the cognitive leap from coffeescript to javascript, while also trying to grok the actual subject at hand. It doesn't make much sense for tutorials to be written in coffeescript unless they are specifically coffeescript tut

    Thanks for clarifying the differences. I was assuming that it was using the same infrastructure as cloud files, and that the performance characteristics would be similar.

    That might be exactly what i was thinking about. I know i saw some diagram.

    It's reasonable to think that this will have similar performance to 'cloudfiles' as from what i've read it's pretty much just a block file on there. their cloud servers already have locally attached storage, but it's limited, because they'r

    Semantic markup means a lot of different things to different people. It depends on how much a jerk the person you're talking to is, and what they actually work on. There are people who say you should NEVER, EVER, for anyreason, have classes

    I'm really glad auth finally got in this. With the biggest obvious stumbling block knocked off the list, I have some questions; Is this production ready? Should I be using this for a greenfield project? What is database access like? Postres

    I thought we weren't supposed to use javascript directly anymore. that's why all the 'first intro to' tutorials for all the hostest frameworks are all in coffeescript.

    1) userbase is not a community, usergroups and such are. 2) the sub-par php code thing? go post on place like craig's list, where the uninformed who need developers might post things, and see what kind of developers respond. go look at word

    He's not bashing green programmers. He's bashing on programmers with years under their belt who never got any better, and don't participate in any community.

    As a musician, THIS can not be said enough! Autoplaying music on any page, even a bands is a bad idea.

    So, what should we be using instead NOW? It's sort of frustrating reading these types of articles. I mean should I not be using python for my web apps anymore? Since we shouldn't be using python anymore, what should i use in the mean time?
